I put this paint scheme together and printed (and cut) it on my Roland VersaCamm SP-300.

(Agile is my brother's t-shirt company... I thought i'd put an ad on the plane for him, since i designed the logo and all:) )

Sharp! So have you flown it yet?

Sure have... I have probably 12-15 flights on it now.

I have had 2 pretty major power failures, but no major damage. (thank goodness I have it balanced so well, it floats to the ground like a leaf!).

The first time I left a set screw off my Hacker 20-20L. The motor came apart mid flight and threw pieces everywhere. It came out with such force, it unplugged the ESC from the receiver, causing a total power loss due to the battery being unplugged. It just leveled out, and floated to the ground. It landed in the street just outside the park smoother than most of my landings, which was nice, but then it rolled across the street and nosed right into the curb. Slight damage to the lower front cowl area. Easy fix.

Then yesterday, my velcro holding the battery in place gave out, and it pitched the battery on while doing some loops. same thing though, landed peacefully. I found the battery in a backyard near the park...unharmed.

I've had pretty good luck with this plane. I'm a pretty crappy pilot...but this plane has been great!
